1 When you have cancer, your body needs more calories and protein. Eating challenges such as difficulty swallowing, loss of appetite, nausea, diarrhea, and fatigue make it difficult to eat enough calories and protein. The key is to make every bite count by eating high protein and high calorie foods. Follow these tips to help increase calorie and protein intake: Eat small, frequent meals instead of 3 large meals. o Eat at least 5-6 small meals or snacks per day. o Eat every 2 to 3 hours even if you do not feel hungry. o Set a timer to remind you it is time to eat. Eat the most when you feel hungriest. o Eat protein foods like chicken, fish, meat, eggs, nuts, and beans first. Use smoothies and shakes to get in calories and protein. o Liquids can be easier to consume than solid foods. o Smoothies or shakes can serve as a small meal replacement. o Add ingredients such as whole milk, powdered milk, protein powder, peanut butter, ice cream, or yogurt to smoothies or shakes to add calories and protein. o Premade liquid nutrition supplements are available at grocery and drug stores. Ask a registered dietitian which type is best for you. o Ingredients such as whole milk, peanut butter, ice cream, yogurt, or fruit can be added to liquid nutrition supplements. Add more fats to foods to increase the calories. o Fat has more calories per gram than carbohydrates or protein. o Use butter, oils, mayonnaise, sour cream, and salad dressings liberally. o When cooking, use oil or butter instead of a nonstick spray.
2 o Add mayonnaise to sandwiches and tuna or chicken salad. o Add peanut butter or cream cheese to toast or crackers. Drink most liquids between meals instead of with meals. o Drinking liquids such as water, juice, or soda while you eat can make you feel full faster. o Drink only small amounts with meals. o Drink higher calorie liquids like juice and milk between meals. o Drink smoothies, shakes, and liquid nutrition supplements with a meal or in place of a meal. Snack regularly throughout the day. o Keep quick and easy snacks with you. o Try granola bars, trail mix, peanut butter crackers, nuts, and dried fruit. o Keep your favorite snacks around so you will eat more. o Eat a bedtime snack. It will not affect your appetite at your next meal. o Peanut butter crackers, half a sandwich, yogurt, and cereal are good bedtime snacks.
